Merge tag 'upstream-3.7-rc6' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-ubifs
 
Pull UBIFS fixes from Artem Bityutskiy:
 "Two patches which fix a problem reported by several people in the
  past, but only fixed now because no one gave enough material for
  debugging.

  Anyway, these fix the problem that sometimes after a power cut the
  file-system is not mountable with the following symptom:

	grab_empty_leb: could not find an empty LEB

  The fixes make the file-system mountable again."

* tag 'upstream-3.7-rc6' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-ubifs:
  UBIFS: fix mounting problems after power cuts
  UBIFS: introduce categorized lprops counter

BUGS 
- Out-of-space may cause a severe problem if the object (and directory entry)
  were written, but the inode attributes failed. Then if the filesystem was
  unmounted and mounted the kernel can get into an endless loop doing a readdir.
